Hello,
At work my monitor has a port for VGA and HDMI. I would like to hook up my handroid to the VGA Port to mess with my girlfriend via remote desktop. Due to the fact that this isn't very serious, I want to avoid purchasing a bluetooth keyboard/Mouse, and utlize the ones on my desktop.
That means I'll be running an OTG cable, to a splitter, splitting to a USB Keyboard/mouse.
Those bits work no problem. My question is if anyone knows if this video cable will work:
http://www.amazon.com/TRENDnet-Cabl...BSL4/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1337117122&sr=8-4
It's the cheapest one I could find.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

Hi,
does anyone know an adapter to change the HDMI signal from my MHL-adapter to VGA?
I need it because of the data projectors at my university.
I have already tried with 2 adapters: HDMI-> DVI and DVI-> VGA
but it didn't work.
Thx for your help
Just wait for something like that : http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/bizlink-mhl-to-vga-tv-out-adapter-black-p29960.htm
Or buy this type of cable, that could be better than buying a new adapter :http://imgs.inkfrog.com/pix/soonitrade/VGA_HD-15_Male_Cable_(1).jpg

HDMI has no analogue component so it can't be passively converted to analogue (VGA.) Similarly, VGA-HDMI cables are designed for devices that can output HDMI-over-VGA, and won't work either. You need an active adapter for that.

HP makes a HDMI to VGA

I haven't tried this yet. Anyone know if this HP device works?
Hi, as you know SGS2 doesn't support video via 3.5mm jack like SGS does, and I was wondering if there's any way of converting HDMI to RCA?
I found this cable:
www .amazon .com/HDMI-RCA-VGA-Cable-1-8ft/dp/B002ZUI68G/ref=pd_cp_e_3
(remove spaces from the link)
but I doubt it would work as you need digital to analog conversion and the cable doesn't seem to have any "black box" that could do it.
Can anyone reccommend any (cheap) ways of connecting SGS2 to TV via RCA using phones USB port?
BTW if Samsung did it same way like they did with SGS it would make peoples lifes so much easier!!!

This is something I have tried and did not work. I bought an MHL adaptor for Samsung S2 and also HDMI to RCA cable with black box. The video and audio did not work with HDMI to RCA cable. Need help here.

From my understanding you need the micro usb mhl to scart then a scart cable going into a hdmi to composite downgrader and then you can hook up the rca cable - I haven't done this as would work out quite expensive but quite sure it would work as your problem is the hdmi to rca cable they never work as don't downgrade signal.
If anyone finds a cheaper way please let me know.
Also wondering if there is anyway to use allshare with apple tv box as I have one of these - if anyone cam help that would be great.
Apologies for highjacking thread a little bit but as a new user I'm unable to post my own thread yet!
Thanks in advance.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a HDMI to VGA converter to use with the Xoom? Every so often I'll invite over a few people and play movies in the backyard. I've been using a laptop and projector, but after getting the Xoom I've been thinking about getting rid of that laptop.
Related question. Are there any HDMI/VGA converters that split off the audio? Should I even bother with that or just plug speakers into the headphone jack?
Kramer Electronic has 1, a VP-422
is it not possible to convert to vga without digital scalers ?
Not without a transcoder. VGA is analog, HDMI is digitial, they send a completely different kind of signal. DVI-D and HDMI are the same however (aside from the lack of audio, of course), so if your monitor or TV has DVI-D, then you can just get an adapter on eBay or monoprice for a couple bucks.
from what i've read micro hdmi doesnt have the right pins for a DVI connection.

Perhaps that's why it didn't work for me when I tried... I just ended up buying a different monitor with HDMI.
Xoom does not have the required +5V out that is needed for DVI. That's why it won't work.

hi all,
I want to ask if someone have a solution to connect the tablet
With a vga projector....
I search the forum but there is no clear solution for this
a hdmi from famsung and hdfury maybe?
Hi you need a hdmi adapter for tablet (eBay, amazon etc) and then you need hdmi or dvi (hdmi is essentially dvi) to vga active converter! And that's the important bit, it can't be just a cheep passive adapter, it must be an active converter.
Yea like the guy above me said, I would think it be best to go from HDMI to VGA to get the ideal connection. I did a quick google search and I saw some adapters for VGA that had male and female connections depending on the situation you need.
in theory everything will working but can you exactly
suggest me the hardware that will guaranteed work please???
Hello everyone,
I have a monitor I'd like to hook my Samsung Note 10.1 (2014) up to, but it only has a DVI-D dual link input.
I know I'll need to buy an MHL adapter, but what's the best way to go about this?
I can't find any MHL>DVI adapters, so should I pick up an MHL>HDMI adapter, then connect that to a HDMI>DVI-D dual link adapter?
Would it be able to output at the monitors native resolution (2650x1600) which is the tablet's native as well?
I've googled around for 30 minutes, can't seem to find an answer.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you.
have you tried connecting other devices using HDMI>DVI-D? if it works, then it should be the same if you connect MHL>HDMI>DVI-D.
basically plug and play from MHL>HDMI, so i don't see any problem if you try MHL>HDMI>DVI-D. of course you'll lose the audio though.
HDMI and DVI-D are electrically compatible, so it should work. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Visual_Interface#DVI_and_HDMI_compatibility
Also, MHL (3rd gen), HDMI and DVI-D support that resolution, so I think it should work.
(source http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_High-Definition_Link#MHL_3.0_features)
I wonder if an unrooted tablet has the ability to route audio through the jack output when a hdmi cable is connected. If not you'll need an splitter for audio to.
